George's Bagged Black GTI! *NOW WITH ROTIFORM WHEELS*

[Georrge]

Hahahaha thanks man

[ephemeross]

Damn that's one nice looking MK5! Rotiform make the perfect wheels, prefer the LHR's myself, but they're not much different.

If you're going to blank the rear wiper, check these out: http://euroimagetuning.myshopify.com/ I bought a black one for mine and they're spot-on! Bolt style works so much better than anything else.
Much better than halfords gommets or the ones on ebay that need polyseal or w/e it is. The sealant degraded so quickly when I used one on my old MK4.

[Georrge]

Thanks a lot! Yeah the LHR's are beautiful, but they're also about 3 times the price as they're splits
I'm going to go with the one from https://www.gecleant.de/shop/glasstopfen.html as it sits flush with the glass and has had loads of good feedback on this forum, it does however require sealant but no one has said anything bad about it from what I've read, they supply their own. Thanks for the advice though!

[ephemeross]

Haha, didn't know that! I may have to look into getting some BLQ's instead of LHR's for mine then :p

Ah, yeah I've heard good things about the gecleant one. I was going to get it before I found the other one. Rear wiper delete is one of the best mods imo.

[Tracey]

Been in California for the summer so havnt been on this till now... A lot of catching up to do, The new wheels really look the business!

I ended up getting the Depo projectors myself in the end and im very happy with them! Did you flush the front grill youself? and did you wrap the grill matt black?? I want to wrap mine matt black... but im not to sure  how it would look on the grey car...:/ Also, police are starting to clamp down on no number plate in Ireland... Do you have any picture of the way you set your up on the lower grill?? Sorry about all the questions 

Seen this has really made me want to get the finger out and get back to my car! Just done Uni on the job hunt now so hopefully I pick something up soon so I can kick on with my car!

Thanks for the kind words! I'm really happy with the wheels, I spent quite a bit of time deciding which ones to go for, but defiantly made the right decision!

Thanks! The amp is 2,400W, can't remember the sub though!

The front arches have been rolled to 45 degrees and been pulled a few mm, so nothing major. I would love a set of wide wings to drive super low though

Welcome back! The Depos are great aren't they!
I purchased a genuine US spec grill and then plastidipped it to make it matt black. Really easy and it's held up amazing, no chips at all! I've seen a greyu golf with it matt black, it looks great!
Earlier on the thread I have photos showing how the magnets on my number plate work. Haha get to work!

  looking good buddy

[Georrge]

I went up to the Vagroots event at the Ace Cafe on Sunday, wasn't expecting to get a space inside but one of the marshals saw me park up outside and told me they would make a space for me to get inside, so I was over the moon with that! A few photos were taken too! (Take note of watermark for the photographer)

nice ride 

i was looking to buy air for mk5 but i still went for ah exclusive coil :D bags are expensive :D

[Georrge]

Thanks for the kind words!
It's expensive, but extremely convenient! In my opinion it's worth every penny, but it depends on how low you want your car, and whether you mind it scraping on every speed bump or not

[Radostormvr6]

Stunning car dude 

[Georrge]

I've treated myself quite a bit recently, I went back to EMP and had a 3" decat downpipe fitted, so it's now running a full 3" turbo back exhaust which sounds incredible! I have also just had the Revo air intake fitted, which again really sounds good!

On Tuesday it goes to R-Tech Performance for a Stage 2 remap, looking at 270+ bhp!
